Script
I have a business.
I want to run my business better,
so I joined a mailing list.
The man sends me emails about how I can make my business better.
In one of his emails he talked about watches.
He talked about how he didn't have a watch for many many years
but when the apple smart watch came out he was interested in it
and so he bought a smart watch
and then he became more insterested
and started to learn about other smart watches
and his passion developed
he started to looked into fashion watches and status watches
Rolex is a popular brand name
and it's a status symbol among watches
all the parts are made with the finest quality materials
and it's really really sharp.
They come in many shapes and sizes.
There's also watches that are timeless pieces
they were made a long time ago they're very valuable
and at the same time simple.
Some of the watches today are still operating from a hand -
hand cranked I'd like to say,
you wind it up
it's a wind up watch
but other watches run from batteries
and yet other watches are using the sun or light to make them go.
As I said, there's all sorts of watches.
Even more amazing is the diversity for prices for these watches
some of the watches are dirt cheap
you can get them in a 100 yen store or a dollar store
other watches are thousands of dollars,
even tens of thousands of dollars
I think there's watches out there that are more expensive than my car
I just can't understand why people would buy such a thing
on the other hand there's a lot of things in this world that I can't understand.
Do you like watches too?
I actually don't like watches
i find the hardest part of the watch is remembering to put it on and remembering to take it off
and I almost inevitably forget it or lose it just when I get used to it.
So I've decided not to wear a watch.
How about you?
